Rats & Star | Soul Vacation | Album

Released in 1983, Soul Vacation marks a fascinating turning point for the Japanese group Rats & Star (formerly known as Chanels). Fresh off a high-profile name change forced by the French fashion house Chanel, the band re-emerged with their signature doo-wop and R&B sensibilities fully intact, delivering a project that is as visually iconic as it is musically charming. Driven by their massive hit single "Me-Gumi no Hito," Soul Vacation encapsulates the vibrant, sleek, and often romantic energy of early '80s Japanese pop music.
